    For those who like conspiracy theories things are now dropping into place
    There is a Grove Street in Burnley.

    Is there a football pitch there?

    'Grove Street, Burnley' wouldn't need too many letters deleting and replacing when updating the address. Time's money, every little helps.

    Makes no sense for them to change it to Grove Street if it was anything to do with a move away. The previous name would've been fine.

    It might be more appropriate to call it Sesame St to be fair!

    Well, a club insider told me that @YTBFC first floated the idea of a move to Burnley to Conway as it was an easier commute in for him. ;)

    Was that when he suggested renaming the program "Turf Moor Review", but was told he needed to be a bit more subtle?

    I heard exactly the same Gally.... YT's defence of the Grove Street idea must now come under closer scrutiny.:)

    Perhaps they're going to build a new stadium on the Grove Street car park next to Oakwell ... and then call it Grove Street.
    It would be nice having two grounds next to each other !

    Sitting in the West Stand on many a dull Saturday afternoon I’m sure my mind thought the title was Bored not Be red.

    Are you suggesting this whole thing is a typo, and once again, they've confused us for Burnley?

    Maybe we are trying to merge with them.

    So as any future confusing terms between Burnley and barnsley are somewhat removed.

    Everyone can then say, oh, them.... knowing it's the same club

    First Grove Street next Pontefract Road then M1 then M62. It's a relocation plan.

    Be Red was just an abbreviated version of the real name - Be Ready......(for what’s coming next).
